Climate action (or climate change action) refers to a range of activities, mechanisms, policy instruments, and so forth that aim at reducing the severity of human-induced climate change and its impacts. "More climate action" is a central demand of the climate movement.[1] Climate inaction is the absence of climate action. Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time, threatening the very foundation of our planet. Rising temperatures, devastating natural disasters, and unpredictable weather patterns demand immediate attention and collective action. The science is clear: human activities are significantly contributing to climate change, and it's time to take responsibility
